Why Your Board Should Self-Assess With BoardTest

Your board has a legal and moral responsibility to fulfill its fundamental job: lead your non-profit through quality governance. Individual members of your board may contribute in many ways but if your board does not deliver the basics, then you are not succeeding. We know that boards that engage in self-assesement are more effective than those that don't (2007 Governance Index).An effective board does three things really well: a) be the link between the organization and the organization's "moral ownership"; b) control the organization through explicit policies that express the values of the "moral ownership"; and, c) assure the organization performs satisfactorily (Boards that Make Difference, John Carver). BoardTest is a turn-key solution that will tell you if you are doing these things well and how to do them better.

BoardTest is organized to evaluate the board's three core processes: People, Purpose and Policy.

Your board's People process should be giving you a group of individual board members with the right mix of talents, skills and attitudes, and a board that operates as a highly functioning governance team.

Your Purpose process should be giving you an understanding of who your non-profit's "Moral Owners" are, a board that is a genuine link to the "moral ownership", and an organization that is having a worthwhile impact on its beneficiaries.

Your Policy process should be giving you a set of unambiguous results the organization must achieve (what change, for who, at what relative cost), a set of adequate controls, a clear relationship between the board and the individual/s responsible for achieving the designated results, and an effective board structure.

An evaluation alone is less powerful than an evaluation with a plan. Your BoardTest results will also include an action plan of suggested activities specific to your situation. This customized plan will help you leverage your current strengths and address your weaknesses for the benefit of the non-profit you lead.
